Mark 7:31-37

Revised Geneva Translation

³¹ And He left the coasts of Tyre and Sidon and came to the Sea of Galilee, through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis.

³² And they brought to Him one who was deaf and stammered in his speech and asked him to put His hand upon Him.

³³ Then He took him aside from the crowd, and put His fingers on his ears, and spat, and touched his tongue.

³⁴ And looking up to Heaven, He sighed, and said to him, “Ephphatha.” That is, “Be opened.”

³⁵ And immediately his ears were opened. And his vocal chords were released. And he spoke plainly.

³⁶ And He commanded them that they should tell no one. But as much as He forbade them, the more they proclaimed it.

³⁷ And they were astonished beyond measure, saying, “He has done all things well! He makes both the deaf to hear and the dumb to speak!”
